Infill Panels

Wire mesh is an extremely popular choice for infill panels and railings applications. When properly framed and installed, wire mesh infill panels serve as a protective barrier in high traffic areas, like jogging paths, zoos, stadiums, recreational parks, college institutions, amusement parks, restaurants, bars and even residential patios and decks. Engineers and designers often specify wire mesh because it offers an excellent combination of visibility and safety.

Because each infill panel requirement is different, customers will supply full specifications, including the desired mesh or opening size, diameter wire and sheet size. Of course, it is the responsibility of the customer that the provided specifications meet all appropriate state and local building ordinances.

Selecting the appropriate material is critical when deciding to use wire mesh for infill panels – stainless steels, plain steel and galvanized are very popular. Other metals and alloys, such as copper and its alloys, are sometimes used to create an upscale look, particularly in high-end restaurants or residences.

By and large, wire mesh used in infill panels tends to be custom manufactured simply because there are hundreds of different wire mesh specifications that are often utilized. Custom manufacturing conveniently allows for the production of a specific opening size and diameter wire in the material of the customer’s choosing. Darby specializes in custom manufacturing both woven and welded wire mesh, and routinely provides quick lead times and competitive pricing. Darby normally offers custom wire mesh in weaving crimp styles such as plain, intermediate and lock crimp or in the standard welded construction.

T-304 SS remains the standard to use in infill panel applications. It offers a high level of corrosion resistance, and due to its popularity, is available in countless options, many available from stock or through custom manufacturing.

Stainless steel welded wire mesh, when used in infill panel applications, is very popular for a user looking for a clean and consistent look. Darby offers many stocked options of T-304 SS welded wire, mesh, including 2” x 2”, 1” x 1” and ½” x ½” as well as some rectangular mesh options.

Galvanized wire mesh is preferred by large outfits that require thousands of square feet of infill panels, yet are constrained by a tight budget. Galvanized mesh is corrosion resistant by virtue of its coating and is available in both woven and welded construction.

When plain steel wire mesh is used in infill panel applications, it is almost always painted or coated in an attempt to prevent excessive rust. Many of the popular plain steel woven and welded wire mesh specifications are constantly manufactured, so if it is not in stock, it will be soon.
